White Line Christmas. Part 3: Korcula, Croatia

Whether you are travelling to any of our hotels over the coming month, or in fact are residents of the cities that play host to our collection, we thought you’d appreciate knowing about the Christmas related delights on offer amongst the hotels.

Part 3 takes a look at a very special opportunity to spend Christmas in the surrounds of an 18th Century palace – The Lesic Dimitri Palace in Korcula, Croatia.

The Lesic Dimitri invites you to experience the real essence of Dalmatia, but on your terms.

There is nothing wrong with just relaxing and enjoying the easy-going pace of island life. However, there are many things to see and do too. The following are suggestions to give you some ideas, which you can further personalise when you speak with the hotel.

Indulge in the sumptuous comfort of the palace’s residences whilst your every need is attended to. They have assembled a three-day celebration, which will leave you relaxed, pampered and very well fed.

Their three-night package includes:

Welcome drink upon arrival.
Early evening drinks and canapés in the lounge.
Traditional Christmas Eve Dinner at Ranc Maha, a fairytale restaurant hidden in the hills above Korčula, surrounded by pine forests and the distant view of the sea.
